Don’t open GTA 6 the second it unlocks. Here’s what to sort out before November 19: the boxed copy has no disc, pre-load opens November 12, the bonus deadline, how much space you really have, why there’s no Online on day one, and how to stay spoiler-free (and away from fake “leaked build” downloads).

What time are you starting on the 19th, and where are you playing from? I'm curious how many of you are staying up until midnight.
OK so guys before starting gta 6 we have to see this video from this channel f ur oled TV f ur exp consoles just come here before start😂
I have it installed already on xbox
I'm playing from Miami, Oklahoma. I've got the ultimate edition pre ordered. I'll download early so that I can play immediately on the 19th. I'll play it on the standard PS5.
Why would I want a pre order bonus that enables online play thay doesnt even exist for it… then rolls over… LOL WHAT A FOOL
Just bought an Xbox series X as I had preordered the Ultimate edition but noting to play it on 🤣🤣🤣🙈 will be playing from Herefordshire in the UK 🎉🎉 can’t wait just finished GTA 5 again as a warm up 😂😂
hm this won't be good for console players then 😂😂
Open? It's digital only slop. There's nothing to open.
iam not going to download this for maybe a month or cause every one will be doing it not me iam not in a rat race to get their let all the younger people do it then i can watch lots of you tubes what to expect
The game will be around 250Gb, probably a little more, Rockstar knows how to make the games look good with small sizes. Red was 150Gb, this is much bigger, that´s why the 250 probably, no one knows
Me buying the box guarantees that PlayStation will get pretty much nothing off the sale, and I’m fine with that
For complicated games I don't buy them right off the bat I wait a couple months or years until the game is fully sorted out, updated, and fixed plus who knows what rockstar will do once gta6 is released plus I have other games to play before GTA6
Dont tell me what to do
Also get snacks and drinks in advance
I wait for PC 18TB space and ultra graphic with 60—120fps TRUE 4K
dev already confirmed the install size for both series x and ps5 250gb total
I don't care for the merchandise all I care is the game
I got an 8-ball ready to pull an all nighter.
Dude what do you mean there isn't a list for the ultimate edition? There is literally a list of all the bonus shit it comes with right in its description
YET MORE YAP OVE NETFLIX VID…
it's 2026. Who is actually playing games on PC? Nobody, that's who!
